This Crawdaddy piece-of-shit publically declared that he is a fan of the Green Bay Packers. That gives him credibility equal to that of a crack whore. I archive every newsgroup that I partcipate in, so I have his statement safely stored on one of my servers. I have every intention of bringing this up next year, and every year from now until the end of time. Whenever Crawdaddy shows his miserable (green and yellow painted) face, I will be there to remind every reader that he is a pathetic low-life cheese-head.


Here is what I said:

"I'm not much of a football fan and I am a nominal Bears fan, at best.
To give you an idea how little emotion I invest in football, in the
post-season games in the recent past I've rooted for the Packers."

Asslip inflates my statement to having me a painted green face Packer
fan. Par for the course of this dopey troll.

I'm not a Packer fan. I do not follow them. Didn't watch their game
the other night, even though I was home. Never been to a Packer game
in my life. And I've only been to a few Bears games.

The difference between rooting for a team and being a fan eludes the
troll. I will root for whatever AL team goes to the World Series, as I
usually do as an AL fan. If it's the Yankees, then I'll root for them.
Will that make me a Yankee fan? Not in my opinion.

Something else eludes the dimwitted troll. Not everyone in Chicago is
a Bears fan. I happen to be a nominal Bears fan. I am not emotionally
charged about the Bears at all though. Why?

My father was not a Bears fan in spite of his being a lifelong Chicago
resident. My dad and all his family are (Chicago) Cardinals fans.
Even though they left Chicago decades ago they still yearn for the
Chicago Cardinals and they will not root for the Bears. On the other
hand, I never embraced their love of the lost Chicago Cardinals nor
their hate of the Bears.

Bears vs. Packers? I want the Bears to win. I NEVER said that I'd root
for the Packers over the Bears. When the Bears are eliminated I do
hope the Packers win. If that makes me a Packers fan to the lowly
Cubbie troll then it's just further proof of his stupidity.

I vacationed in Wisconsin recently and noticed that many Packers fans
are also Cubbie fans. I bet that fact will make Asslip spin out of
control in foulmouthed rage.

you boorish hypocrit! Jiffy's obviously gone. And so are all the fairweathered W.S. fans :-( It pains me to have to return here, and respond to personal flames. I was hoping that my work, in this newsgroup, had been successfully completed until next Spring. The disappearance of the "fairweathered fans" is something that I clearly and repeatedly predicted...indeed, I saw it as flat-out inevitable. In fact, it was THESE fans (who crawled out from under rocks at the season start...wearing black and white t-shirts and saying, "I have been a Sox fan ALL OF MY LIFE!") that caused the intense nausea that lead me to begin my posting barrage. Now they have disappeared, because they never truly existed (as real Sox fans) in the first place. It is possible that some of my posts helped them to realize that they were making idiots out of themselves. It is significant to note that I personally know hundreds of Cubs fans, and note a single one has dropped his loyalty to the team...even in light of the pathetic finish this season. The fact that the White Sox will never achieve a loyal fan base, equal to that of the Cubs, is a topic we have already discussed dozens of times this season. There are a few of you, however, that have proven to be truly nowledgable, and formidible, White Sox fans. It has been a real pleasure trading blows with you. I apologize for having gotten most of the attention...when you obviously put more research into your posts. HOWEVER: This Crawdaddy piece-of-shit publically declared that he is a fan of the Green Bay Packers. That gives him credibility equal to that of a crack whore.

Bears fans?

Your family, including your Dad, are all ASS-WIPES. They do NOT reflect
Chicago residents as a whole. In fact, your relatives are the people
that we kicked the shit out of when they dared to show their face at a
local bar. That might well explain why you DO NOT live around here
anymore. You must shudder in fear at the thought of facing a REAL
Chicago fan. Poor little crawboy.

I don't blame them. That reinforces my claim that SOX Fans are full of
shit. But that does not negate your bullshit remarks about being a
stupid cheese-head fan. Nice try, but I will still be here to repeat
your dumn-ass remarks next Spring.

You are a stupid, dumn-assed, ignorant, cheese-headed, Packers Fan. You
should seek the easiest form of death. Your pathetic life is worth less
than my typing time. Please DIE and go away, you stupid Cheese-Head!!!!

I guess we will soon see the last of Dr. Crawdad. He must have been
really proud of that handle, but now he has screwed that all up. Maybe
he has some dumb-assed RECIPE to post in response to his stupid GB
Packers support? You can all laugh at his recipe and, maybe, forget
that it was posted by an anti-Bears piece-of-shit Packers Fan. Let's
all see how well that works.

Dr. Crawdad!

I have good news!

It seems that Wisconsin will be happy to take you! Several contacts, of
mine, are willing to offer you a good apartment up there (way up
north). So you can happily, and securely, move as soon as possible!

You don't have to thank me now!

A follower of a particular team, keeps track of the games through every
option available, every game. That includes national broadcasts, newspaper
articles, box scores and so on. I might be a little handicapped considering
that I hadn't subscribed to MLB broadcasts and that I don't live in N. IL.,
but I can also read. Considering your comment that I offer nothing but
"opinions" sounds quite PC (sportsmindedly). However a newsgroup such as
this is a place to participate in written conversation, be it opinions,
facts, reasonings, and variable interests.

It also shows what he's capable of. What would you say if next year, he hits
fifty HRs? Would that be unreasonable. It does appear that you're
expectations of Dye's capabilities are limited. I don't recall him cranking
many long balls after their post-season possibilites were considered
unlikely. Dye's proven all along to have a quiet personality and a lot of
integrity.

I can agree that Rowand would have won us 7 or more games, but then how many
would they have lost without Thome?
It was good to see Thomas start a new career in Oakland because he deserved
it and I hope the best for him. The upper management pretty much had lost
faith in Frank's health - and that was understandable. But without Frank in
'05, there would never have been a post-season. He proved - as long as he
wasn't on the DL, that he had matured and was there to win.

Let's just hope that KW doesn't do the same eratic things that - was it
Shaeffer (?) had done to the '94 team and its pitching staff. That was the
team that was definitely going to bring into fruition the 90's dynasty.

No pardon necessary. A Chicago resident who is NOT a fan of the Chicago
Bears is pure dirt. This Crapdad gave me a lot of grief throughout the
season, and I don't intend to let this go.

Incessant? Maybe.

Intolerable? We all tolerate what we can.

Nonsense? I think I am making PERFECT sense. He's a Packers fan and has
no right to breathe the same air that I do.

That's pretty good coming from an Indianapolis Colts fan.
